Walthamstow market gives key workers discount on everything

The market runs every Sunday from 10am to 4pm in Walthamstow High Street and features more than 30 traders every week.

It was established in 2018 and mostly consists of food stalls, although goods like wine, candles, plants and skincare products have also been sold.

For the rest of the year, everything sold at the market will be 20 per cent off for key workers.

This includes NHS staff, police officers and firefighters, as well as employees of Waltham Forest Council.

Customers can claim their discount by showing a current staff pass to the trader.

Social distancing rules apply at the market, meaning customers should queue in designated places, use contactless payment wherever possible and only touch items they intend to buy.
